If anyone is familiar with this program, I'd be interested in knowing your experience or comments; good, bad or ugly!  I'm leery due to past listserv discussions regarding organizations that show up on campuses and promote these types of trainings "on behalf of" the institution!
 
Thanks!

Subject: Grants Training in Milwaukee, April 3-7

The Grantsmanship Center’s signature Grantsmanship Training Program is coming to Milwaukee, April 3-7.  The program will be hosted by University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.

The Grantsmanship Training Program is a one-of-a-kind workshop, widely recognized as the “gold standard” of grants training.  The Grantsmanship Center (TGCI) created and offered the first grantsmanship training program ever in 1972, and over the years it has built a matchless reputation for excellence among nonprofit, academic, and government professionals worldwide. 

The Grantsmanship Training Program covers all aspects of researching grants, writing grant proposals and negotiating with funding sources.  More than 100,000 nonprofit and government personnel have attended this comprehensive 5-day workshop, which now includes a full year of valuable membership services.   

During the workshop, participants learn TGCI’s proposal writing format, the most widely used in the world. In addition to practicing the most advanced techniques for pursuing government, foundation, and corporate grants, they develop real grant proposals for their own agencies.

Upon completion of the training, participants receive free follow-up, including professional proposal review, access to TGCI’s exclusive online funding databases, and an array of other benefits.

Tuition for the Grantsmanship Training Program is $825 ($775 for each additional registrant from the same organization).

To ensure personalized attention, class size is limited to 30 participants. To register online, to learn about scholarship opportunities for qualifying organizations, or for more information, visit http://www.tgci.com/training/tprogram.asp. Or call the TGCI Registrar at (800) 421-9512.
